Visitors' Information
Our team remains at your service and we would like to sincerely thank you for the support that you have shown us and continue to show us as we gradually re-open.
Your understanding and cooperation make a difference, and we are very grateful.
General Protocols - re: COVID-19
For your comfort and safety –
  • We will continue to follow any COVID-19 mandates set out by the Ontario government.

  • While the mask mandate was lifted in the spring, we strongly encourage you to continue wearing your mask. Over the past 2 plus years, efforts to fend off COVID-19, like masking and diligent hand washing have helped us all experience fewer colds and flus.

  • Please be kind and respectful of others’ choices and the fact that everyone has different needs and comfort levels.

  • Please remember, to keep doing your part to protect yourself and others and stay home if you are feeling unwell.

  • Sanitizing your hands is recommended at the entrance and exit of the facility. Disinfecting stations have been installed throughout the facility and we encourage you to hand sanitize frequently.

  • Cleaning and sanitizing protocols have been increased.

  • Protective acrylic partitions have been installed at member service areas. 

  • Payment is accepted by debit or credit cards only (Mastercard & Visa). No cash.


If you are hesitant to visit for whatever reason, we would encourage you to reach out to one of our staff members to have that conversation. We would certainly love the opportunity to share with you the details of the work we are and will continue to do to help keep you safe.   

We look forward to welcoming you!
